GoSam @ LHC: algorithms and applications to Higgs production

Abstract

We elaborate on GoSam, a code-writer for automated one-loop calculations. After recalling its main features, we present a selection of phenomenological results recently obtained, giving relevance at the evaluation of NLO QCD corrections to the production of a Higgs boson in association with jets and heavy quarks.
